I'll admit that at first I laughed it off, and considered it like when Perot ran. However, the more I see and hear of him, the more I'm interested. Mainly because I'd like to see someone get a hold of the economy that isn't a lawyer/career politician. Bonus points if his "I don't give a fuck what you think, this is how it is" attitude continues while he's in office making budget decisions.
I don't care about abortions or the link to religious stuff, that shit is pandering to the right wing. Anyone can go back and look at Trump's previous interviews and see that. (although that's a nice cover up story about abortion). I do like his statement here:
"You know you can't get so caught up on social issues and then put somebody who is wonderful socially but is going to get decimated by Barack Obama," Trump said. "You have to pick somebody that's going to win."
I couldn't agree more.
I love the Republican push towards fiscal responsibility, but I can't stand their stance on things like gay marriage. That's where they alienate the middle of the road and independent voters.
The next election will be interesting to watch.

It'd be amusing if I didn't have to suffer the consequences of his decisions.

He said he wouldn't help struggling nations such as South Korea or Libya without payment and promised to use swear words while negotiating with China.
When did South Korea become a "struggling nation?"

He really needs to get a VP who can do all the foreign policy stuff.
Trump can still make the big decisions, but let him focus on the economy, and leave foreign relations to his VP and the Secretary of State.

I'll go a step further and say his cabinet had better be fucking outstanding.
